A 4n-parametric family of 4n-dimensional quasi-Kaehler manifolds with Killing Norden metric is constructed on a Lie group. This family is characterized geometrically.

Study curvature operators in 4n-dimensional manifolds, finding new conformal invariants.

The paper proves conditions for almost complex manifolds to admit almost complex structures through connected sums.

We prove that the signature of an even, symmetric form on a finite rank integral lattice, has signature divisible by 8, provided its associated linking form vanishes in the Witt group of linking forms. Our result generalizes the well know fact that an even, unimodular form has signature divisible by 8. We give applicat…

Study on symplectic semi-characteristic using cohomology and vector fields.

A Hermitian metric on a complex manifold is called strong Kähler with torsion (SKT) if its fundamental 2-form $ω$ is $\partial \bar \partial$-closed. We review some properties of strong KT metrics also in relation with symplectic forms taming complex structures. Starting from a $2n$-dimensional SKT Lie algebra $\mathfr…

We study the hypersymplectic spaces obtained as quotients of flat hypersymplectic space R^{4d} by the action of a compact Abelian group. These 4n-dimensional quotients carry a multi-Hamilitonian action of an n-torus. The image of the hypersymplectic moment map for this torus action may be described by a configuration o…

Analogous to 4D, new Ansatz for quaternionic Kähler spaces with a free action.

Study on types of generalized hypercomplex structures on tori and Kodaira-Thurston surface.

We give a procedure for constructing an $8n$-dimensional HKT Lie algebra starting from a $4n$-dimensional one by using a quaternionic representation of the latter. The strong (respectively, weak, hyper-Kähler, balanced) condition is preserved by our construction. As an application of our results we obtain a new compact…

Study on contact manifolds reveals infinite isometry groups for large Chern classes.

:Let G be a group together with an descending nested sequence of normal subgroups G=G_0, G_1, G_2 G_3, ... of finite index [G:G_k] such the intersection of the G_k-s is the trivial group. Let (X,Y) be a compact 4n-dimensional Poincare' pair and p: (\bar{X},\bar{Y}) \to (X,Y) be a G-covering, i.e. normal covering with G…

Formula for colored Links-Gould polynomial with genus bounds.

We study type one generalized complex and generalized Calabi--Yau manifolds. We introduce a cohomology class that obstructs the existence of a globally defined, closed 2-form which agrees with the symplectic form on the leaves of the generalized complex structure, the twisting class. We prove that in a compact, type on…

The paper develops quaternionic toric geometry and classifies local actions.

A complex symplectic structure on a Lie algebra $\lie h$ is an integrable complex structure $J$ with a closed non-degenerate $(2,0)$-form. It is determined by $J$ and the real part $Ω$ of the $(2,0)$-form. Suppose that $\lie h$ is a semi-direct product $\lie g\ltimes V$, and both $\lie g$ and $V$ are Lagrangian with re…

A well-known property of the signature of closed oriented 4n-dimensional manifolds is Novikov additivity, which states that if a manifold is split into two manifolds with boundary along an oriented smooth hypersurface, then the signature of the original manifold equals the sum of the signatures of the resulting manifol…

Study $Sp(n)$-orbits in complex and $Σ$-complex subspaces of Hermitian quaternionic vector spaces.

We consider a general 4n-dimensional quaternionic Kahler geometry with a free action of the torus T^(n+1). The toric action lifts onto the Swann bundle of the quaternionic Kahler space to a tri-holomorphic action that commutes with the standard H* action on the bundle. By matching Pedersen and Poon's generalized Gibbon…

This paper studies geometric structures on manifolds with specific symplectic properties.
